OLED is organic led...a display screen that uses LED's to display text etc..

This must have confused me. I read this to mean that they are going to make these boards OLED and that the screen would be in the same space that the 9V would be so it is a one or the other.

No just and led like a good virtue board, not an OLED screen. The 9V will go where the stock screen was. Basically it's gonna be a virtue board angel replica. Which is fine if it's affordable.

Yes, what he meant was because a 9 volt would take up so much space the board will simply be LED instead of OLED

I would take one for my son's 03 speed.

Also a 7th element board plus a battery is about the cost of the Virtue boards (9v) that I have seen on fleabay recently. Maybe there are enough new features with the 7th element boards to make it worth while but it makes my cost go from $30 to replace the battery to $95 for a battery and board when I am really only looking to make the gun work at this point.

Well you can be cheap about it but I'm gonna buy the bluetooth module and program my pathfinder boards using my android phone why don't you check out the website and see what I mean.

Me cheap? Never!
I still have the old clam-shell style phone that makes calls and takes pictures, period. Smart phones cost to much to operate monthly, so the Bluetooth feature won't be any help to me.

they posted in pbn a few months back about some boards they were looking into. They want to offer boards for alot of the older markers that there are no options for.

I am definatly interested as I told them when they posted it that A4 boards are needed since virtue stopped production on theirs. Most of the OLED's that 7th are making are around the 70-80ish mark. if they can make one respectable in price Id gladly pick up 2 or 3 of them

[gainman]

that price in that configuration would be perfect. goldmine in the angel market alone. or even if they made them small enough to be universal to most guns like a tboard.

[Tacticool]

Just saying Make em fit 90 frames all the ir3-g7 owners would come flocking, but make it fit ALL angels and youll have a goldmine

[voodooballer]

OLED would be possible if they made it like virtue. Make the screen seperate and just connect it to the board. I think they could make a mint with both oled and led boards, oled for A4/G7 style and then just small LED for previous models
